Synopsis

A heart-wrenching enemies-to-lovers tale brimming with peril, hidden truths, and an epic romance . . . the very genesis of the phenomenal, number one bestselling Inheritance Games saga. Having already been captivated by the enigmatic Hawthorne brothers, readers are now invited to delve into the foundational love story of the long-lost heir of Hawthorne House. Experience Hannah's perspective of their intertwined fates, then simply flip the book to relive their burgeoning romance through Toby's eyes in this innovative and unforgettable novel, designed to be read in either direction. Hannah Rooney, at twenty years old, has mastered the art of invisibility. She keeps her head down, diligently avoiding the treacherous dealings of her infamous criminal family. Her plan is simple: bide her time in nursing school until her beloved sister, Kaylie, turns eighteen, at which point Hannah intends to whisk them both far away to forge a new life, untainted by their past. Tobias Hawthorne II, on the other hand, embodies every inch of the privileged heir he is. As the sole son of one of the nation's wealthiest men, every door swings open for him. Yet, beneath his razor-sharp cheekbones and his seemingly devil-may-care demeanor, Toby meticulously guards a nest of deadly secrets and a potent, fiery anger capable of incinerating everything in its path. Their disparate lives violently collide on one tragic, stormy night. An act of arson, combined with the wrath of nature, leaves Kaylie and two others dead, while Toby barely clings to life – with no memory of his identity. The fisherman who rescues him from the ocean enlists Hannah's reluctant help to save the very man she believes is responsible for her sister's death. Fueled by a burning hatred, Hannah is paradoxically determined to thwart Toby's unconscious death wish, compelling him to survive. He is the absolute last person she should ever develop feelings for, and she is the very first thing he ever remembers seeing. Some things are simply not meant to happen – and yet, some things are utterly impossible to stop. *NB HANNAH’S SIDE OF THE STORY WAS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS A NOVELLA IN GAMES UNTOLD *Reading the whole series?
